In order to make a bigger hole, concrete lintel would be required, yielding a minimum cost of £300. Any regular builder should be able to do this.
Installation of the log burner would have to be done by a professional fireplace installer.
Hope this helps.

If there is a fireplace there already, then there should be a lintel already in place. A fireplace can be widened to within a few bricks of the current lintel
